Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion

Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion
About

The Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion, located in Belgrade’s Little Kalemegdan Park, is Serbia’s first purpose-built exhibition space, opened in 1928. Designed by architect Branislav Kojić in the Art Deco style, it was initiated by playwright Branislav Nušić and funded through public donations and state support. Named after a 16th-century Dubrovnik poet and patron of the arts, the pavilion became a cultural landmark dedicated to promoting visual arts. Since 1945, it has been managed by the Association of Fine Artists of Serbia (ULUS), serving as a central venue for national and international exhibitions. The pavilion’s Spring and Autumn exhibitions, established in its early years, remain among the most prestigious art events in the region. With its rich history and enduring role in Serbia’s artistic life, the Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion continues to be a vital space for creative expression and cultural dialogue in Belgrade.

Belgrade Serbia
Location

The Cvijeta Zuzorić Art Pavilion is located in the park section known as Little Kalemegdan (Mali Kalemegdan), adjacent to the southeastern front of the Belgrade Fortress, in one of the city’s most picturesque and historic areas. Built in 1928 in the Art Deco style, it was the first purpose-built gallery space in Serbia and remains a vital center for the visual arts, managed by the Association of Fine Artists of Serbia. The pavilion’s proximity to the Belgrade Fortress means visitors can easily explore the fortress grounds, Kalemegdan Park, and enjoy panoramic views of the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers. The area is also close to the city center, with easy access to Knez Mihailova Street, Republic Square, and the National Museum, making the pavilion an ideal stop for those seeking both artistic inspiration and the vibrant atmosphere of Belgrade’s historic core.
